Michigan Department of Health Tracking Student Vaccination Status in Violation of Federal Law

The group Michigan for Vaccine Choice[1] has sent a letter to parents in Michigan informing them that the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) and the Michigan Department of Education (MDE) are violating federal law (FERPA) by transferring private medical records about minor children, without the consent of their parents, regarding each student’s vaccination status into a vaccine tracking database.

Despite this, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) and the Michigan Department of Education (MDE) have been allowing the unfettered transfer of this private medical information, without your consent, for decades.

They were put on notice in the summer of 2017 that they were in violation of FERPA and though they acknowledge they are in violation, their attempt at correcting the issue still violates FERPA — Mainly by continuing to mandate schools enter the student’s immunization records into the MDHHS vaccine tracking system (MCIR/SIRS), even for the students whose parents do not provide consent to share.

If you can’t SHARE the information without consent, what makes a school think they can enter the student’s data into the health department’s computer system, a third-party system, without consent?

They can’t.

A state-wide violation of this nature puts Michigan’s federal education support, close to 2 billion dollars, at risk.

It is our belief that this is an attempt to get around FERPA and still gain access to our children’s immunization data.

Yet, they continue to force schools to share this data without parental consent.

This week, Michigan for Vaccine Choice has put all Michigan schools on notice that this continues to be a state-wide violation of FERPA, by sending this letter[5] to all school administrators and officials.

Feel free to use this letter[5] to share your concerns with your school administration.

MVC will continue to advocate for your privacy rights.

If you do not want your immunization data shared with the health department, we advise that you do NOT sign any consent form provided by your school – if you have already provided consent be aware that you can withdraw that consent at any time.

With or without consent, though, your school will still enter your child’s data into MCIR/SIRS, unless the school officials take a stand against this practice.

Lastly, we should make you aware that because of the efforts of a number of concerned legislators, the federal FERPA office at the US Department of Education is looking closely at Michigan statutes, regulations and practices.

They are watching how Michigan handles this issue, and clearly, MDE, with directives from MDHHS, have chosen to attempt to get around FERPA.

We encourage you to read the letter issued to schools, and review the hyperlinks within the document. Please reach out to your school administrators and/or your school board with your concerns.

Dr. Andrew Moulden: Every Vaccine Produces Harm

[8]

eBook – Available for immediate download.

Canadian physician Dr. Andrew Moulden provided clear scientific evidence to prove that every dose of vaccine given to a child or an adult produces harm. The truth that he uncovered was rejected by the conventional medical system and the pharmaceutical industry. Nevertheless, his warning and his message to America remains as a solid legacy of the man who stood up against big pharma and their program to vaccinate every person on the Earth.

Dr. Moulden died unexpectedly in November of 2013 at age 49.

Because of the strong opposition from big pharma concerning Dr. Moulden’s research, we became concerned that the name of this brilliant researcher and his life’s work had nearly been deleted from the internet. His reputation was being disparaged, and his message of warning and hope was being distorted and buried without a tombstone. This book summarizes his teaching and is a must-read for everyone who wants to learn the “other-side” of the vaccine debate that the mainstream media routinely censors.

Leaving a lucrative career as a nephrologist (kidney doctor), Dr. Suzanne Humphries is now free to actually help cure people. In this autobiography she explains why good doctors are constrained within the current corrupt medical system from practicing real, ethical medicine. FREE Shipping Available! Order here[10].
